The death of a child is one of the most painful things a parent can experience, and at times the loss can be unbearable. There are not enough words to help with the pain and sorrow you feel. May you find comfort from the support of family and friends and from the comfort in knowing that God is close when our hearts are broken and He will soon heal your broken hearts and eliminate such pain and suffering by means of His Kingdom. Matthew 6:9,10
